We are the reason

As little children, we would dream of christmas morn
and all our gifts and toys, we knew we'd find,
but we never realized, a baby boy one blessed night
gave us the greatest gift of our lives.

we are the reason that he gave his life
we are the reason jesus suffered and died,
to a world that was lost, he gave all he could give
to show us the reason to live.

as the years went by, we learned more of our gifts
and giving of ourselves and what that means,
on a dark and cloudy day, a man hung dying in the rain
because of love, because of love, because of love...

we are the reason that he gave his life
we are the reason jesus suffered and died,
to a world that was lost, he gave all he could give
to show us the reason to live,
to live, to live...

everytime i see the cross
i'm reminded that he gave his life
for you and me...

we are the reason that he gave his life
we are the reason why the lord suffered and died,
to a world that was lost, he gave all he could give
to show us the reason to live...

we are the reason but he is the reason we live
thank you, my jesus
thank you, my jesus
i thank you lord, my jesus
we thank you, jesus
for god so loved the world...
(jesus)
(thank you)
you're worthy to be praised,
you're wortyh to be praised,
the name above all names...
